Read the passage from A Room of One’s Own.
This may be true or it may be false—who can say?—but what is true in it, so it seemed to me, reviewing the story of Shakespeare's sister as I had made it, is that any woman born with a great gift in the sixteenth century would certainly have gone crazed, shot herself, or ended her days in some lonely cottage outside the village, half witch, half wizard, feared and mocked at. For it needs little skill in psychology to be sure that a highly gifted girl who had tried to use her gift for poetry would have been so thwarted and hindered by other people, so tortured and pulled asunder by her own contrary instincts, that she must have lost her health and sanity to a certainty.
Based on the underlined words, what is the author’s perspective in this passage?
Sixteenth-century women isolated themselves to avoid the ridicule of others.
In the 16th century, brilliant women faced isolation from their communities.
It is necessary to isolate oneself from society when writing great literary works.
Women in the 16th century were shunned for choosing to live in isolation.
